"Okay, I'll go get dressed right away. Sorry for being rude." Hugo's expression turned serious, and he turned to walk towards the base.

Kuro twitched the corner of his mouth, then fell silent.

What kind of person is this? Why are there so many lunatics like this everywhere?

Shortly after, the lieutenant came out of the building and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Hugo invites you in."

“Take that Absolun away. Also, check his information and the information of that girl named Sipatia. You know her, right? The strange girl who talked to you before.”

Kuro returned the gun to Lida and led her and Kuro into the building.

This gun was originally bought in Morgana, but Kuro lost interest in it after using it for a while and let Lida play with it.

The architecture of the Kingdom of Tada is Gothic in nature, and it can never be brightly lit, including the interior, which is mostly dark. Although many changes have been made, adding a few places where light can shine, it still cannot change the lonely and eerie tone, especially since the entire base seems to have no navy.

Hugo's office was on the top floor; they had to walk up a long flight of stairs to get there.

Hugo was already dressed, his naval uniform embroidered with numerous iris patterns, making him look more like a poet than a naval officer.

If Kuro hadn't witnessed this guy's outburst earlier, he might have thought that way, but now, he sees Hugo no differently than a pervert.

"Please sit down."

Hugo stretched out his hand and said, "Sorry, I was a bit out of line just now. It's because I've never seen a pirate before."

"Never seen pirates?"

Kuro, standing nearby, asked doubtfully, "No way, didn't you just take on a whole pirate fleet?"

"That one..."

Hugo's face fell, and he sighed, "That has nothing to do with us. Lord Gugas wiped them out all by himself. I didn't even see it. I've been stationed here for two years, and I haven't even encountered a thief, let alone a pirate."
